Hello Everyone
I´m with problems to dock the Shuttle on MIR taking off from Canaveral. Reaching the correct azimuth is not quite a problem (i prefer to head at 90 degrees in the launch window, so my RVEL is low enough. I Believe this is the correct azimuth once is not possible to calculte a more precise azimuth with KSC coordenates relative to MIR), but i have serious problems in approaching, after have syncronized orbits (the quantity of fuel at the last moment of syncronization is about 10 - 12k): the linear thrusters are very imprecise in comparison to delta gliders and is very common running out of fuel trying to correct the course and lowing the RVEL.
Can someone help me in this matter???
Regards
Thanks
